With travel budgets cut, businesses spread across several locations, and time becoming even more precious, it’s not always possible to get all your people in one room for a face-to-face training session. Never mind for follow-up sessions as well.
Meanwhile, strong communication and business relationship skills are becoming even more important for your organisation’s success, partly for these very reasons.
So how do you deliver quality soft skills learning without having to ship people from pillar to post?
Quality learning, conveniently
We’ve been working with several clients to solve these issues and can offer you a range of virtual training and remote learning solutions, such as video-conferencing, webinars, telephone coaching and our online blended learning platform. You’ll get: experienced, expert trainers; quality, dynamic course design; a personal service and practical results. You always will with Speak First. On top of that you can benefit from the latest technology to make your learning more accessible, convenient and cost-effective.
Experience, advice and flexible solutions
We’re not in the business of pushing one solution, as we can offer you several! You know what you need to achieve, for whom and why. We’ll work with you to find the best way to achieve the right results. You’ll also benefit from our previous experience of delivering virtual training in various formats, so we can offer you honest, expert advice.
Take a look at our virtual training and remote learning solutions below and contact us to find out what we can do for you, or just to throw a few ideas around. Video-conferencingIf you have staff in several locations, why not use video-conferencing to allow them all to benefit from a training session at one time? Participants will be able to see and hear the trainer as though they’re in the same room. And our trainer will ensure that all groups are involved and engaged, drawing them in with questions and exercises aimed at individual groups, just like any good training session.
WebinarsYou can deliver quality training, without even having to book a room. All you need is for participants to have access to a computer with internet. By using a webinar training system, participants will be able to hear our trainer, see them on screen (with the use of a webcam), see slides, ask questions, take part in polls and have a fully interactive experience. The session can also be recorded for future viewing.
Telephone coaching
If you have someone who needs some coaching right here, right now and without travel budgets, it’s usually possible for us to deliver coaching by phone. Whether it’s some pointers for planning a speech, help in understanding personality type and personal impact, or executive coaching, we have expert coaches who can work with the person over the phone. Even for coaching where the visual aspect is important, such as some presentation and impact coaching, we can make it work for you using Skype and webcams.
LearnFusion – blended learning platformIf you want to take a blended approach to your learning programmes, we can facilitate this with our online blended learning platform. It enables you to give learning a life outside the classroom, by taking pre-course preparation, follow-up exercises, validation quizzes and supporting information online. You can even set up online forums for training groups to continue to discuss content and share questions. This means you can keep that all important face-to-face aspect, while taking additional activities out of the classroom. Find out more about LearnFusion here
While face-to-face training and coaching is still ideal in many circumstances, these solutions help you to continue to deliver first-class vital skills development, when budgets or logistics might otherwise prohibit it.
